There are retail events. And then there’s RetailJam.



RetailJam2026

Thursday 25th June, Knebworth Park & Barns


Set against the backdrop of Knebworth Park & Barns, RetailJam brings together some of the brightest minds in retail and brands (across ecommerce, customer experience, marketing, sustainability and technology) for a day of interactive discussions, peer-to-peer networking and fresh thinking.


It’s part retail conference, part festival, and entirely focused on the challenges and opportunities shaping the future of retail. From roundtables and keynote talks to tech discussions and networking over drinks in the sunshine, RetailJam has built a reputation as one of the most engaging events in the retail calendar. All under Chatham House Rules.


And this year, Datitude will be there. You'll find us at the Marketplace - right next to the food and drink vans!

 



Why Data & AI are Dominating Retail Conversations

Retailers aren’t short of data. The challenge is making that data connected, usable and trusted across the business.


We frequently speak with retailers who are dealing with disconnected systems, siloed data, and conflicting numbers across departments. Businesses want to stop wasting time debating which numbers are right and start acting on data they trust.


At the same time, pressure is mounting to deliver more with automation, AI and advanced analytics. But without strong data foundations, AI is more hype than help.


It’s no wonder unified, trusted and AI-ready data is such a big focus for retailers right now.


At Datitude, we enable retailers to connect, integrate and unify their data from across the business into a single, trusted view. Our unified data platform brings together customer, product, sales, stock and operational data so teams can move faster, make better decisions and unlock more value from their existing technology investments.


Connected, clean, consistent data. Delivered where it needs to be, when it needs to be there, and fully governed.



One Session Not to Miss: Breaking Down Data Silos to Unlock the Single Customer View

One session we highly recommend attending is the roundtable discussion on breaking down data silos to unlock the single customer view, hosted by Louis Adamou, Technology Director at Loaf.

 

Louis is a highly regarded technology leader and brings real-world experience of tackling the challenges that come with unlocking the single customer view, and what it takes to unify data across a complex, multichannel retail business. It's going to be retail gold with practical insight from someone who knows what retail transformation involves behind the scenes.


If you're looking for inspiration, and creating a more connected customer experience is on your priority list, this is a must-attend session!

 

Plus, we're excited to see Loaf go live on the Datitude platform, making this a conversation grounded in genuine experience and collaboration.



Let’s Talk: All Things Retail, Tech and Data


Sarah Hughes, Justin Lord & James McLaughlan from Datitude

Some of the recurring conversations we’re having across retail are around whether to build a data platform internally or work with a specialist data partner, or how AI, LLMs and chatbots are shaping the future of analytics and decision-making.

There’s no one-size-fits-all answer. But there are plenty of learnings and case studies we can share from our experience - working with many retailers and brands who have been through the process and now have strong, trusted, and scalable data foundations in place.


If you’re attending RetailJam and thinking about how to:


  • break down data silos and obtain a single source of truth

  • simplify complex integrations

  • improve trust in reporting and analytics

  • build a stronger, AI-ready data foundation


…we should talk!


You'll find us at the Marketplace. It's super easy to find as it's right next to the food and drink vans, and just along from the Tech & Solutions Zone.

 

Sarah Hughes, Justin Lord and James McLaughlan will be there in their element, talking all things retail, data and AI.


If you want to make sure you connect with the team on the day, contact us now and we'll make it happen.




See You at RetailJam 2026

Preferably with a coffee in hand. Or something cooler as happy hour starts and the sun sets at the end of a brilliant day!
